Johannesburg, 03 Jun 2010

Infor has announced that chief strategy officer Bruce Richardson will host a 30-minute global manufacturing industry Webinar, on 8 June 8 2010 at 2pm GMT (4pm South African time).

The Webinar will explore:

* The impact of the economic downturn on the global manufacturing industry.
* The outlook for the global manufacturing industry - comparing relative prospects across vertical industries.
* The impact of manufacturing business pressures on IT strategy for the next decade.
* How manufacturers can strive for operational excellence.

What we say

“The economy is continuing to be the central talking point for manufacturers,” comments Andrew Kinder, industry solutions director, Infor, and chairman of the 8 June Webinar.

“However, we're seeing some very encouraging growth signs in a number of countries and industry sectors. It seemed the right time to institute what we believe to be one of the largest global surveys of the manufacturing base with IDC and IBM and better understand what today's pressures are. The Webinar series will uncover some very interesting findings from the survey and provide a better understanding of what manufacturers are looking for.”

“Why not join me in this, the first of two live Webcasts that explore the challenges our manufacturing business leaders face today?” invites Bruce Richardson, chief strategy officer, Infor. ”What are your concerns for the next decade? What business strategies and initiatives are you deploying to meet your goals? And what is the role of IT in supporting your initiatives? Is IT helping you or does our industry to need to find a different way, a better way to support you? I want to hear from you and take your questions.”
